During the summer months, our three children keep me plenty busy. So it's a welcome relief when my husband volunteers to cook out. These chicken sandwiches are his specialty! Ingredients:
6 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (4 ounces each) |
1/4 cup orange juice |
1/4 cup lemon juice |
1/4 cup honey |
2 tablespoons vegetable oil |
1 tablespoon prepared mustard |
1/4 teaspoon poultry seasoning |
1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper |
6 slices monterey jack or muenster cheese, optional |
6 kaiser rolls, split |
6 thin tomato slices |
6 red onion slices |
shredded lettuce |
Directions:
1. Flatten chicken breast evenly to 1/4-in. thickness; set aside. In a large resealable plastic bag, combine the orange and lemon juices, honey, oil, mustard, poultry seasoning and cayenne pepper. Add chicken breasts; seal bag and turn to coat. Refrigerate for 6-8 hours or overnight.
2. Drain; discard marinade. Grill, uncovered, over medium-low heat, turning occasionally, for 10-12 minutes or until juices run clear. If desired, top each chicken breast with a slice of cheese and grill 1-2 minutes longer or until cheese begins to melt. Serve on rolls with tomato, onion and lettuce. Yield: 6 servings.
